The Italian Anti-Science


 






 

I think it's important to know what is the level of anti-science in a "medieval" nation like Italy.

The sad/glorious story of an excellent scientist: Ilaria Capua.

#RomaFF13 | L'anti-scienza - Il caso Ilaria Capua

Between Italians and Science there is a relationship of distrust.

Just think of the vaccines. But, the case about Ilaria Capua, internationl famous virology overwhelmed by a media false scandal that branded her like a trafficker of viruses, it's exemplary.

Now Ilaria reconstructs the story and elaborates its teachings. And a group of authoritative witnesses analyzes a collective feeling: in Italy it's easier to trust a fake news than a scientist?

Posterity will judge...
